Fly me to the Moon

The Netherlands, Oegstgeest – July 2022

It must be a reflection or something else because the moon was not up at 11.30 am. Yet it seems to appear in this shot.

Swan Sleep

The Netherlands, Oegstgeest – July 2022

LAPC #209 is surreal. The iPhone camera has improved quite a bit: this is a photo taken under a streetlamp of a family of swans, sleeping on the side of the mood in front of our house. It is 3 am, and it could be an image of a dream.

Wet Party Lights

The Netherlands, Oegstgeest – June 2022

This is an entry for ‘texture’, the monthly Thursday Special Pick a Word of Lost in translation. Each month five words, to be visualized in a photo. It is fun to play with.

Over

The Netherlands, Oegstgeest – May 2022

At times the incoming traffic for Schiphol gets annoying. Especially when it is cloudy. The limit for approach is 600 feet here. They do create graphic images at time. That is a small benefit.

Allium

The Netherlands, Oegstgeest – May 2022

Lens Artists Weekly Challenge #200 is ‘Every little thing’. Lots of small things, but flowers, and how they open up meeting the sun, are all around. Here the first part of an Allium flower courageously opens up.

Over

The Netherlands, Oegstgeest – April 2022

North West winds mean a lot of planes coming in over our house. Every 90 seconds. Between 1000 and 800 feet, making their approach on Schiphol, 20 kilometers away. The sound is annoying at times, but they do deliver nice images.

The Netherlands, Oegstgeest – April 2022

The Netherlands, Oegstgeest – March 2022

Red

The Netherlands, Oegstgeest – April 2022

The Lens Artists Photo Challenge this week is #194: bokeh. Spring is the time for bulb flowers: daffodils, tulips, hyacinths. The garden is popping with tulips right now. And in two weeks the flower parade will take place after two years of absence. Looking forward to it, especially the smell of the flowers.

The Netherlands, Oegstgeest – April 2022

A sunrise like this on a Spring morning over the water. A gift on any day but if it is your birthday? Lens Artists Photo Challlenge #193 is ‘they say it is your birthday’.
